Oxizymes Conference 2018

ISME Workshop

The workshop, next to the OxiZymes 2018 conference, will bring together early career researchers (ECRs; PhD students and Post-docs) and build interfaces between different disciplines (e.g microbial ecology, biocatalysis, biochemistry). Specifically the workshop will focus on how we can leverage recent advances in microbial ecology to identify novel and/or efficient enzymes from the environment. The dinner speech will be given by Prof J Colin Murrell (President, ISME; www.jcmurrell.co.uk) followed by a career panel discussion that focuses on challenges and opportunities for ECRs in academia, industry, government and NGOs with invited panellists from these sectors.

The participants for the workshop is currently capped at 30 and preference will be given to the attendees of the OxiZymes 2018 conference.
